Uncover the Secrets to Winning Campaigns – Backed by Science

Campaign Lab is launching an exciting new online series where top academics reveal proven strategies for campaign success. Forget the hype—each session delivers practical insights grounded in research that you can use to win. 

--------

How do interactions with local politicians shape political views, and why do these experiences vary so dramatically? The answer may lie not just in whether politicians respond to constituents, but in how and when they do so.

While many politicians focus on increasing the quantity of their interactions, they often overlook the importance of quality communication. Response style and timing could be far more crucial than previously recognized.

Professor Kate Dommett and Dr. James Weinberg from the University of Sheffield have conducted extensive research on this topic. This Thursday, they'll share their findings and expertise on how communication approaches can significantly impact citizen satisfaction and improve the state of democracy.

Join us to discover practical strategies and actionable insights that campaigners and politicians can implement to enhance constituent relationships and foster meaningful dialogue. Could something as straightforward as improved communication help address some of our most pressing democratic challenges and repair the fractured relationship between politicians and the public?
